In the process of putting together a pair of clone boots for my shocktrooper.
They are work boots with a few add-ons but I'm not quite sure if they are up to the task?????
Would be grateful if people would post pics of their clone boots!

After a couple of troops he ended up cutting off the whole top of the foam at the top edge of the shoe. And he took the front part that he cut off and glued it on the inside of the shin armor piece for padding . He has also weathered them very nicely.

We are in the process of prototyping boots. It was near impossible to model the boots properly since they are never closely featured in any shots in the movies. It was a ton of trial and error but we think we are relatively close at this point.

Yeah, I agree they should be taller in real life. This model was to make it as accurate as possible. We still have some tweaking to do but I think it's mostly there. I notice that I left the cross bar out of the ankle buttons. Oops.

John - you never fail to surpass my imagination. I can tell I am gonna be doing a lot of shopping with you mate!

These are mine, they were a pretty quick and dirty job (15 mins per boot, made for about 5usd) they're more of test than anything, I'm planning on redoing them with thinner foam over the toes and sorting the bottoms out with flat soles when my armour kit arrives, also missing the ankle disks atm
(ignore the shin armour, they are from an fx suit)
In the reference shots I've seen, the spat part almost looks like it should be ridged armour.. not sure how practical that would be though...

Hi mates, what about these OSCS boots, are the ankle`s height acceptable?

That style is not made anymore. I had them made over 5 years ago. I took some designs down that I made with the flip top front and the zipper for ease to put on, to a boot guy and had only 4 pairs made. They cost over $240.00 a pair. All leather and very comfortable and 501st accepted.
